- About My Library
- I have more audiobooks than I was aware of when I started cataloging them. A number of works come up in my catalog with multiple entries - one for the audiobook, one for the paper copy.
- About Me
- As you may be aware, Combiners! sees many of the side effects on LibraryThing of problems in imported data (e.g. when an amazon catalog entry has a bug in it, the bug will be imported to LibraryThing when it's used to create a LibraryThing catalog entry). If I refer to import errors having an effect on anyone's data, that's the kind of thing I mean.
Common issues with amazon data:
- an anthology having "Various" listed as the first author
- multiple authors' names being jumbled together as a single name in the author data (often looking more or less OK at first glance but leading to a mess on the LibraryThing end)
- not importing author / editor data at all - Currently Reading
